Hello all,
I read this forum for a few years, but didn't create an account before...I've decided myself, as I was interested to buy a Taïko audio Setchi groundbox for my system.
I'm interested in hifi and music reproduction for about 35 years now.
My system is based on active pro speakers, as I found them generally much more acurate than passive speakers + amp at the same price (it's my choice, I don't say it's always the truth)
So I'm using in a 28 x 13ft room, (RT60 quite linear at 0,40-0,45 for those who are interested) :
Tidal streaming + local files on SSD (thunderbolt powered) through
roon + convolution file with Xtalk cancellation from Home Audio Fidelity (french custom service) to
Mac Mini + Mojo Audio Illuminati LPSU
Supra rj45 lan - Waversa smart hub -Pachanko lan
PSAudio DirectStream junior (ethernet/bridge input) to
Parasound P7 preamp (XLR inputs and outputs with Hypex cables)
Geithain RL940 active speakers + 2 x DXD808 Ken Kreisel subs through an Antimode 8033
+ various absorber and diffuser panels, and also 2 Active Room Neutralizers from Jack Bybee (fantastic stuff)
...so it's mainly a German american system
I'm really satisfied with this gear, and specially the true 3D imaging I've never heard anywhere else (even on high end systems in retailers or various shows...).
The only thing I think I could improve would be low end bass (it's very linear up to 32-35Hz, but nothing below) and maybe heavier attacks on drums/percussions (the kind of thing you feel from high efficiency 15' speakers from Onken to JBL...)
I'm mainly listening to :
Electronic music (ambient/chillout), acoustic folk/pop (mainly scandinavian artists and some other, from Emiliana Torrini to David Sylvian, Stina Nordenstam, Jan Swaerts...), new classical Music (Olafur Arnalds, Max Richter...) and some Classical romantics : Schubert, Brahms, Mahler...
I'll post some pics later...
